How to use the LinkedIn Sent Request Extractor
PhantomBuster’s LinkedIn Sent Request Extractor Automation collects the invitations you’ve sent from your LinkedIn account. This tutorial shows you how to connect your LinkedIn, set up the Automation, and export your sent invitation data.
Required inputs: LinkedIn session cookie and your browser’s user agent (auto-detected with the Chrome/Firefox extension).
Resource usage: This Automation consumes 1 slot and takes about 25 seconds per profile.
Free plan limitations: CSV exports include only the first 10 rows, CSV download links and JSON exports are unavailable, and you cannot upload a CSV as input.
Data limitations: Output fields depend on LinkedIn's display; sent dates may be missing, and messages appear only if included. Ensure you are logged into the correct account to view data.
Safety: Keep browsers updated to prevent cookie expiration and respect platform automation rate limits.
Connect your LinkedIn account: Install the PhantomBuster browser extension and connect your LinkedIn session in one click, or manually retrieve your session cookie if using a different browser.
Select launch frequency: Choose how the Phantom should run: launch manually, schedule a single or recurring run, trigger after another Phantom finishes, or use advanced scheduling for precise timing.
Optional: Configure advanced settings: Leave defaults unless a guide instructs otherwise. Adjust execution limits, retries, notifications, proxies, webhooks, or file management if needed.
Launch and access results: Click Launch to start the Phantom. After it finishes, access your data from the Results tab and download as CSV or JSON.
For a detailed walkthrough, see the full tutorial on the help center.
Set the Phantom on repeat
Automation always produces better results in the long run. Set the Phantom to launch repeatedly and get results while you're away!
This Phantom runs from the cloud, which means you don't even need to have your browser open or computer on for these launches to happen.
For more automatic launch options, click on the three little dots in the top right and "Show advanced settings."
